Itachi was interrogating your subordinates when he got a phone call. After looking at the name on the screen, he quickly pick it up.

"Hey, you big police bastard! Not only you act rashly towards us! Where is your police etiquette?! Not to mention that you address our boss with her name and-"

"Akizaki-san, stop it", the younger Uchiha tries to stop that man from blabbering nonsense.

"You little- Don't think that you're her little brother, I will be afraid to-"

"It's not 'her'", Makoto pressed at him, clutching Akizaki's collar tightly, "It's Hatake-san!"

Konan and Ono are having migraines because of Akizaki's lousy mouth, Makoto is acting cool but that ice melt due to the heat after hearing someone 'disrespecting' his sister, Rouye is flipping his black cards, currently enjoying the drama in this room while Zhao Yun is still lost in the middle of nowhere since he doesn't get what is happening right now.

Itachi's head was about to explode but he continues to talk with his subordinate through the phone anyway.

"Shisui, what is it? Any update about Sasuke or (y/n)?"

"We located Madara's phone, (y/n)-I mean, Hatake-san might be near him, I mean, (y/n)! Ah, what ever! And Sasuke!"

Hearing Shisui all panic like that making him more panic. "What's wrong with Sasuke?!"

"Oh, he's out of the ICU room now! Thank goodness, right? He need blood transfusion before and I donate it, and listen, there is this cute pink haired girl nurse! She's super nice and-"

"Anything else, Shisui?"

"Uh...I tracked Madara's phone... illegally because...you know... So, don't tell anyone about this, please...I mean, Madara is the most suspicious here!"

Itachi sighed and his lips curled up a bit. Finally, things going his way for now. "I understand. Thank you, Shisui. I won't forget about your deeds to me."

Without hearing Shisui's reply at the phone, he put down the phone and end the call first, knowing how much more Shisui will talk. He open the location that Shisui sent him and his eyes widened.

"T-This place..."

Akizaki caught what Itachi is muttering and quickly push Makoto away as he jump over a few chairs to get to Itachi. "What is it? Let me see!" He said, snatching Itachi's phone away.

Konan take a glimpse and saw that location clearly. "This place is not that faraway from here."

Itachi is standing still, remembering something. "That place is very near with where I drop Sasori earlier...and I totally forgot about him!"

***

After arriving at a more crowded place, that person let you go. He was wearing a hood, covering his face from your sight.

Just about you want to ask 'who are you?' at him, he look around and that windy evening make his hood fell and the evening sun bath his beautiful feature in a perfect angle.

"You okay?" He asked first with his deep yet gentle voice. His red hair was flowing, dancing with the wind which is a bit grown that he tie them up in a high pony.

At a first glance, you can deny the fact that you almost called out Deidara's name but after seeing that red hair, you bit back your early intension. Calling and asking, "S-Sasori?", instead.

Sasori was still scanning around and finally seems to find what he was looking for. He drags you again while you struggle with the pain but follow him anyways.
He leads you to an electronic store which makes you more stupefied. He looked through at the smartphone section before looking at you. "Which one should I choose?"

"What? Owh. Phone?" You were spacing just now while gritting your teeth to swallow down the surging pain, you look through the smartphones that might suit for Sasori. "Just take whatever you want, put it in my bills." You answered, looking around to see if there's somewhere for you to sit.

"You're so fucking rich now, huh? Well, Itachi gave 70 thousand yen after he drop me off so...no need for that." He answered and quickly choose a new model for himself.

"Wait, Itachi...drop you off? He's the one who pick you up?" You asked him.

"Yeah. I thought it was you who will pick me but he came instead. Then, he ran into emergency... And I told him that I want to visit Deidara and Chiyo-baasan."

You just nod at him, wiping the sweat on your face and tried to steady your breath. This is the first time you've get shot and it hurts as hell!

"Ugh...so, that hut is really, ugh..."

"Yeah. That's our secret base, remember?" Sasori answered after receiving his brand new phone and his eyes finally diverted to your thigh which wet by your blood. The fact that you're wearing your black suit, the blood looks just like a normal water spill. "A-Are you...hurt?" He asked while trying to prompt you up, gently tugging you to exit the store and find a bench.

You sat on the bench, flinching a few times before feeling relief. You didn't answer him and about to shut your eyes.

"(y/n)! Don't close your eyes!" Sasori told you while his hand quickly shove into his pocket to reach his phone, dialing a certain number and call that person.

You don't really hear any of his conversation but somehow...you heard him call Itachi's name a few times during the call. After that, he took of his hoodie and rip some of his white shirt to tie it to your wound to stop the bleeding.

"Hang on. He's on his way now." Sasori told you and his face told it all, he's panic.

You don't reply at all and try to stay awake. After all, you already ran in this state before, staying shouldn't be harder, right? Maybe... you're too exhausted at the moment and you lean back at the bench. "Fine, just...let me rest..."

Before Sasori could reply, a familiar car approaching the two of you and stopped right in front of you. A man stepped out of the car and he quickly went to your direction.

"(y/n)? (y/n)! Can you hear me?!"

You smirked, muttering, "How dare you...use my name like normal words..."

***

You flutter your eyes open and look around to scan your surrounding, you're clearly at your room. You covered your left eye, trying to ease the throbbing pain behind the eyeball and look around again.

"Was it just...a dream?"

After asking that to particularly no one, you about to jump down from your bed but you felt an intense pain from your thigh. Your eyes wide open as you quickly remove the blanket from covering your body.

Clearly you already in new clothes and at your thigh...it was wrapped with bandage and it's restraining you from be able to moving around.

"Fuck! It's not dream!" Then, a sudden realization strikes you, knowing that maybe there's someone else in your house right now.

You instinctively rummage your drawer, take a gun hidden there and slowly limp over to the door of your room. You slowly turning the door knob na d quickly flung the door open, pointing your gun at the living room.

You spotted a man on the sofa and he's clearly shocked with your action.

"(y/n), calm down. I-It's me, I-Itachi..." The man with long raven hair said. After looking at him more carefully, you're half surprised and half at ease.

"Um, (y/n)...can you please...put the gun...away?"

"Uh, sure..." You said, embarrassed with your action and slowly putting the gun down before pointing it at him again making him almost lost his soul. "How do you get in here?! How dare you break into my-" You didn't finish your words after looking at your front door which is in a perfect condition, meaning no one break it.

"I-" Itachi was about to answer your question but was stopped when you pointed the gun to a different direction this time. Towards another young man.

That young man was pale in shocked after seeing you pointing your gun at him. Trembling, he said, "A-Anesan!!! Makoto is sorry! Do-Don't shoot me please..."

You sighed again and putting the gun away. "So it's you who 'invites' him over, huh?"

"M-Makoto apologize, Ane-san..." He plead.

"Yeah... whatever-" Another sudden realization hits you and you quickly point your gun at those two again, making them shocked, again.
"You two- How dare you changed my clothes, you-"

"Hatake-san, calm down. It was me who helped you changing your clothes and even treated your wound. They see nothing. I can promise you that."

After hearing that cold tone of a firm womanly voice, your shoulder relaxed again and your arms abruptly went down again before turning to face that woman. Your one and only trusted best friend, Konan.
"I'm glad it was you, Konan."

"Yes. And for your information and in order for you not to point your gun again...Sasori is here as well. And..." Konan gently take your gun away from your grip and said, "Let put this aside first."

"Oh...good idea. I mean, great idea even..."
